Minimally invasive, good for securing devices of remote users, and does not slow performance
Pros and Cons
  • "It is minimally invasive. From a single installer, the equipment is protected and secured."
  • "This is one of the most innovative solutions due to the fact that it includes many real-time content filtering features, management, and assurance of the transactions of what went in or out of our peripherals. That said, it is important to integrate other solutions to continue innovating in the market."

What is our primary use case?

We were having several difficulties when we were presented with the design that we had to implement for the teams and personnel that had to work outside of the organization due to the pandemic. 

As a result of all this and all these uncertainties, the need to secure the equipment was the reason we adopted the Harmony endpoint solution. It came to protect us inside and outside the institution. The equipment itself does not need to be connected and secured by the perimeter area of ​​our organization.

How has it helped my organization?

We have adopted this solution in a quick, simple way. It integrated well based on these three characteristics: 

1. It is minimally invasive. From a single installer, the equipment is protected and secured. 

2. The solution is really not burdened with the need for computing power for the local management of the device, which will prevent the teams from slowing down. 

3. It is integrated with a cloud administration which makes it easy, fast, and simple to manage each of your policies for the security of the equipment. 

What is most valuable?

Its most outstanding feature is the power to manage everything from a dashboard, a window that is in the cloud, which allows us to manage it from anywhere in the world through any browser, from anywhere. This is a feature that came to give administrators the possibility to work from home. Today many of us are remote workers who are not at the company, on-site. We are not in a single site, and yet we manage well and have the capacity and the assurance of managing everything easily, quickly, and simply.

What needs improvement?

This is one of the most innovative solutions due to the fact that it includes many real-time content filtering features, management, and assurance of the transactions of what went in or out of our peripherals. That said, it is important to integrate other solutions to continue innovating in the market.  

I would very much like to have the opportunity to see applications access at the web level and have applications from different brands and devices give simplicity to the management that we are going to need in the future.

Easy to install and deploy with great threat mitigation
Pros and Cons
  • "Deploying new versions of the endpoint are easy."
  • "The Infinity Portal login is "iffy" at times."

What is our primary use case?

Endpoints have always been a network's weak point, as they are the main interface users use daily. A good endpoint security product must be able to be flexible in both deployments and across multiple OS versions. 

Check Point Harmony Endpoint does that for us. With multiple blades that add security to these weak points, I can be assured that threats are being mitigated in real-time. Also, Harmony Endpoint works seamlessly with Check Point's new MDR product, so logging, detecting, and responding couldn't be easier. 

How has it helped my organization?

With the new Harmony interface, I don't have to worry about a local endpoint management server anymore, making my deployments and updating of endpoints so much easier across the board. 

I haven't had issues with anti-malware updates anymore, and I can manage my endpoints from one Infinity Cloud portal. 

Being short-staffed in my department, this solution has absorbed some of the daily tasks of monitoring endpoint products to ensure they are up and running. Also, reporting services/blades that aren't running lets me use my time more freely. 

What is most valuable?

Deploying new versions of the endpoint are easy. It was a hassle before with a local management server, and now it's as easy as selecting the version you want from a drop-down menu. 

The options for removing/adding blades with the click of a button from the portal are great. The built-in VPN blade makes it so easy to deploy on my endpoints if I need employee remote access to my LAN. 

The installation is so easy with the simple MSI deployment packages, and I can watch the deployment process in real-time from the Cloud Portal. 

What needs improvement?

The Infinity Portal login is "iffy" at times. I would like to restrict it to only US traffic, however, due to the hosting in the cloud, it sometimes retrieves data from the EU and across seas. 

Also, if there was a way to simplify the SmartConsole login more, there could be an opportunity to take away some clicks to log in. Navigating back to the browser to log in through that portal site just makes for a more extended login transition. Just have the MFA capability right there on the local application and be done with it. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using Check Point's endpoint solution for five years, however, just recently moved to the Harmony interface this summer. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The stability makes it easy to move up or down. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The scalability makes it easy to move up or down. 

How are customer service and support?

Support could be improved. I'd give them a 7/10 before COVID, and maybe a 5/10 post-COVID. If you know who to ask for, it's more an 8/10. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We did not use a different solution previously.

How was the initial setup?

The setup is straightforward. Check Point assists the whole way, so it was very easy. 

What about the implementation team?

I handled the deployment in-house, myself. 

What was our ROI?

I'm not sure if we have seen an ROI. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Our rep has been great to work with concerning quotes/licensing. The setup is relatively easy, being in the cloud. A new customer could be up and running on a new Harmony install within days. 

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

CrowdStrike was the main one we evaluated against this product. 

What other advice do I have?

It is a great product. Check Point could work on their Technical Assistance Center (TAC) to assist customers, however, they usually get the job done in the end.

Our company is a global software product company with a lot of users all around the world. With Check Point Antivirus, we can protect our users' machines and securely connect to a network.

Flexible, supports most of the operating systems, and provides good threat intelligence features
Pros and Cons
  • "The solution has good threat intelligence features."
  • "The network monitoring features must be improved."

What is our primary use case?

We use the product at the perimeter. Since we do not have a branch, only one area is protected by the solution. The networks we have are in a compact area.

What is most valuable?

I love the product’s flexibility. We can manage the blade without changing the protocols. It is easy to manage how the tool runs the network. The product is easy to deploy. It’s a good firewall. It supports most of our OS, such as Linux and Windows. We can use it even on mobile devices. The browser and data protection are good. The solution has good threat intelligence features.

What needs improvement?

The network monitoring features must be improved. If my ISP says that they gave me 300 Mbps, I would like to see where the network is used the most and where we are underutilizing it. I need features to monitor the bandwidth. I want features to monitor the upload and download speeds.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using the solution for the last three years.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support is good. I was working on some backups of a hospital management system to the cloud. Check Point provided us with very good support.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The pricing is very high. The tool’s cost has increased by almost 300% in two years.

What other advice do I have?

I will recommend the tool to others. Overall, I rate the solution eight and a half out of ten.

A solution with a number of valuable blades that make it competitive
Pros and Cons
  • "With the prevention blade, Harmony scales higher than many other solutions."
  • "I have a few issues when attempting to install Harmony on some of the machines."

What is our primary use case?

I handle Check Point SMB along with Check Point Harmony Endpoint, and I have recently provided around 400 endpoints to a construction company in Sri Lanka.

What is most valuable?

The Rollback feature is valuable because ransomware attacks are very familiar nowadays, and anti-phishing and anti-ransomware blades are required by many of our customers. Other features, like prevention blades, are also okay, where you get threat extraction and evaluation. Likewise, the forensic report is also very important.

With the prevention blade, Harmony scales higher than many other solutions. Even CrowdStrike has technical problems when you're offline. But Harmony is not like that. Even if I don't have Internet connectivity, I have seen how remediation and rollback happen. All the encrypted files come to a state where it works with micro-backups.

Customers would like to have a very advanced endpoint to protect themselves from anti-phishing, especially ransomware.

What needs improvement?

I have clients who use very old Windows versions, so I have a few issues when attempting to install Harmony on some of the machines. At times, even with the latest Windows versions, the machines' performance gets slower. We still don't have a clear idea of what has been happening. If you take 100 PCs, two, three, or four are still troublesome when you attempt to install Harmony.

Also, the price could come down slightly, and I am not saying by a huge gap, but slightly. Even Sri Lanka's smaller customers have to buy a minimum quantity, and with Harmony Connect, they have to buy 50 licenses at once. If they could come down to 20, 30, or something like that, I should be able to sell much more. Some customers would like to have Harmony, but they have to buy a minimum quantity of 50. That's a bit troublesome for me as a salesperson.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have worked with Checkpoint Harmony Endpoint for almost one year now.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I rate the solution's stability a nine out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I highly rate the solution's scalability.

How are customer service and support?

We have a set of engineers who specialize in Harmony Endpoint and Harmony Connect.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The deployment takes one or two weeks. The deployer always creates a tenant, through which they install the solution. They also trained customers and end users to install Harmony, and they managed to install the entire license.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I rate Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing a seven out of ten because it is a little high.

What other advice do I have?

Features like factory remediation, basically callback, are getting familiarized by Sri Lankan customers. Many have bought Harmony endpoints, so many customers have been considering Harmony Connect. This will lead to it having a good future.

When speaking to customers, I first communicate what ThreatCloud is all about. ThreatCloud is shared by other solutions like CloudGuard, Quantum, and Quantum Spark. It's very common to them. This means you will get the prevention blade, not the detection blade. Whenever you have phishing attacks, malware attacks, DDoS attacks, and even zero-day attacks, they are all always prevented by Check Point Harmony and Check Point products.

I always advise people to go for an advanced endpoint because IT managers have less of a hassle when using products like Check Point.

I have been facing lots of competition with CrowdStrike and Kaspersky. I don't think other products should compete with Check Point Harmony Endpoint because it is a different level endpoint altogether. I want to give them competition with the pricing.

I rate Check Point a nine out of ten.
